Our Web design Process

Launch your Website in Three Simple Steps

01

Briefing

We kick off by learning about your business, audience, and unique requirements through collaborative discussions. This initial step allows us to gather invaluable insights and align our design strategy with your specific goals, ensuring a tailored solution that resonates with your audience and reflects what makes your business unique.

02

Design & content

We focus on what makes your business stand out, creating visually appealing layouts, intuitive navigation, and captivating visuals. Simultaneously, our copywriters craft engaging, easy-to-read content that informs and entices visitors, leaving a lasting impression and turning them into paying customers.

03

Development & launch

With your design and content approved, we turn it into a real, working website. Our development team builds your website, so it works perfectly on every device, whether your customers are on a phone, tablet, or desktop. We test everything thoroughly before going live, making sure your site loads fast, stays secure, and gets found on Google. When you're ready, we're right there with you to launch it.

Pricing & Details

Small Website Design Overview

Typical Investment

R5,000 to R75,000+ What you pay depends on what you need. A simple 5-page site sits at the lower end, while e-commerce stores or sites with custom features will cost more. Most small businesses in Johannesburg find a good solution in the R8,000 – R25,000 range. 

Best For Small businesses, startups, professional services, e-commerce

Whether you're just starting out or ready to take an existing business online, a professionally built website helps you show up credibly and get found by the right people.

SEO Ready - Technical SEO foundations included

Your site gets built with the basics in place so search engines like Google can find and index it properly. It gives you a solid starting point to build visibility over time.

Average Build Time

1 to 12 weeks A straightforward website can be ready in as little as one week. More complex projects with custom functionality or a lot of content naturally take longer. How quickly you can provide feedback and approvals also plays a big role.

Fantastic work by Big Web Media creating our new website! The layout is clean, fresh and very easy to navigate. The communication and review process was excellent - particularly when we could view a 'demo' site online. They understood any changes we wanted to make and this process was extremely quick. Thank you Big Web Media and we can't wait to see how the next phase of the site progresses.
